Mapisarema 99

1 Jehovha anobata ushe, ndudzi ngadzidedere; anogara pachigaro choushe chiri pakati pamakerubhi, nyika ngaizungunuke.

The LORD reigneth; let the peoples tremble; He is enthroned upon the cherubim; let the earth quake.

2 Jehovha mukuru paZioni; iye akasimudzirwa pamusoro pendudzi dzose.

The LORD is great in Zion; and He is high above all the peoples.

3 Ngavarumbidze zita renyu guru rinotyisa, iye mutsvene.

Let them praise Thy name as great and awful; Holy is He.

4 Mambo mukuru, anoda kururamisira, imi makasimbisa kururama; muna Jakobho makaita kururamisira nokururama.

The strength also of the king who loveth justice — Thou hast established equity, Thou hast executed justice and righteousness in Jacob.

5 Kudzai Jehovha Mwari wedu nokunamata pachitsiko chetsoka dzake; iye mutsvene.

Exalt ye the LORD our God, and prostrate yourselves at His footstool; Holy is He.

6 Mozisi naAroni vakanga vari pakati pavaprista vake, Samueri akanga ari pakati paavo vaidana kuzita rake, vakadana kuna Jehovha akavapindura.

Moses and Aaron among His priests, and Samuel among them that call upon His name, did call upon the LORD, and He answered them.

7 Akataura kwavari ari mushongwe yegore; vakachengeta zvaakatema nemitemo yaakavapa.

He spoke unto them in the pillar of cloud; they kept His testimonies, and the statute that He gave them.

8 Haiwa Jehovha Mwari wedu, imi makavapindura; makanga muri Mwari anokanganwira kuna Israeri, kunyange makavaranga pane zvavakaita.

O LORD our God, Thou didst answer them; a forgiving God wast Thou unto them, though Thou tookest vengeance of their misdeeds.

9 Kudzai Jehovha Mwari wedu mumunamate pagomo rake dzvene, nokuti Jehovha Mwari wedu ndiye mutsvene.

Exalt ye the LORD our God, and worship at His holy hill; for the LORD our God is holy.
